High demand has led to all available spots being booked for the Basque pelota exhibition sessions scheduled for October 3 and 4 at the Beti Jai fronton in Madrid.

The reservation process, which opened this Tuesday at 10:00 AM, concluded with the full occupancy of the capacity planned for the various sessions. Currently, the digital platform enabled for the event indicates that the waiting list is also full, preventing any further registrations.
The initiative, promoted by the Madrid City Council in collaboration with the Madrid Pelota Federation, aims to revitalize the sporting use of this iconic venue. Over the two days, eight matches of pelota mano and frontenis will be played in the 36 and 30-meter court modalities.
The Beti Jai, located on Marqués de Riscal street, is a building declared a Property of Cultural Interest. This activity seeks to highlight its history and recover the tradition of this sport, which was highly popular in the capital at the end of the 19th century.
